Hearing the voice, Charis turned back and saw Lauren walking into the ward.

She had already learned a lot about Lauren before coming to the hospital. Now, seeing her in person made Charis realize the woman wasn’t as gentle as she seemed in the photo. She looked cunning. Strands of hair around her temples had turned grey and the wrinkles around her eyes seemed more prominent, revealing her age.

“Hello, Mrs. Quinn.” Charis withdrew her arms from Cassie, stood up, and nodded politely.

“You’re finally here, Miss Turner. That cruel bitch has ruined Cassie’s life. Do you see what lengths she had gone to take her revenge?” Lauren grabbed Charis’s hands and lamented.

However, Charis felt disgusted. She had never seen such an unreasonable person in her life. It was Cassie who had started all this. She was the one who had hired men to assault Natalie, but her plan had backfired.

However, Charis hid her disgust and frustration and forced a smile “Don’t worry. People cannot do bad deeds and get away with it. They’ll be punished for all their wrongdoings. Natalie, too, will pay the price for her mistakes. She will face a terrible, miserable end.” Lauren looked at her grimly. For a moment, she thought Charis was mocking her. Sometimes, she would wake up in a cold sweat in the middle of the night because the past continued to haunt her even now. Lauren studied Charis’s face and realized the latter wasn’t mocking her. She seemed cheerful and easygoing. Considering her parents had pampered her and spoiled her, Lauren concluded that Charis was just another sweet innocent girl and there was no hidden meaning behind her words. She thought she could win Charis over by playing the victim

Every family has its own problems. I’ve heard about the new predicament in your family. Mrs. Turner and the male star made the headlines again yesterday.” Lauren patted Charis’s hand and sighed concernedly. “By the way, you and Cassie seem very close. What do you think of her?” Bile rose in Charis’s throat. She could understand what Lauren meant. She wanted Cassie to marry into the Turner family. Lauren and her daughter both had thought Charis was a fool who only knew to spend money. “As you know, there will always be rumors about influential families.
